Rumors are swirling that Justin Bieber may have distanced himself from his long-time mentor, Usher. Fans have noticed that Bieber is no longer following Usher on Instagram, which sparked speculation about their relationship. However, it’s unclear whether Bieber ever followed Usher in the first place.
For context, Usher played a significant role in Bieber’s rise to fame, having introduced him to his manager Scooter Braun, who then helped propel Bieber’s career. Usher also introduced Bieber to his own mentor, Sean “Diddy” Combs, though recent accusations of s*x trafficking against Combs have cast a shadow over their past connection.
Usher has spoken candidly about his time living with Diddy, mentioning in interviews that he was exposed to a very different lifestyle, including being surrounded by women and witnessing disturbing behavior. While Usher has been somewhat private about these experiences, he has referred to the time as “pretty wild.”
Bieber, who gained fame as a young YouTube sensation, has kept a more private life recently, focusing on his personal life with his wife, Hailey Bieber, in California. Whether or not there is any truth to the rumors remains to be seen, but fans are certainly keeping a close eye on the situation.
